Hello to everyone.  I decided I needed to check my email at home and catch up – I have    been reading everyone’s emails.  Sounds like everyone is doing good.  I am still working.    I have been at Hawker Beechcraft (formely Raytheon Aircraft) since April 2005.  Started out  doing a buyer/planner  job for what they call softgoods and woods – all the leather, veneer, the chairs  and divans, fabrics for the curtains – that type of stuff.  In July I changed to Master Scheduling.   Our home office in Wichita schedules the “green” planes and then we load and schedule the completions at Little Rock for the Hawker line.  It is interesting and different from telecommunications.  I did set next to John Selby until I changed jobs.  He is doing well.    Some of you will remember Andrea (Andy)  Sandage – she also works at Hawker and is doing a buyer/planner job.  Andy’s husband works at Falcon Jet.  Bob Walker also works at Hawker Beechcraft- he is buyer/planner for our Horizon line of Hawkers.  There are a few hourly people working in some of the shops.  It is really nice to catch up with some many old friends.  I wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and blessed New Year.
